[Help-glpk] how to install glpk on matlab in windows xp

[Swati Sinha]

Please help me on how to install glpk on a windows xp (32 bit) running on VMware. 

i followed the steps:

1. Download the precompiled version of glpkmex from sourceforge:
   1. At the time of writing, you need to download two files from the glpkmex page: glpkmex-2.8-src.zip and glpkcc.mex32.
2. Unzip the glpkmex-2.8-src.zip file, copy glpkcc.mex32 into the resulting glpkmex folder, and then copy the glpkmex folder to the toolboxes folder of your Matlab installation (for example, C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2008b\toolbox).
3. Add the glpkmex folder to your Matlab path:
4. In Matlab, go to "Set Path" from the "File" drop menu.
5. In the "Set Path" dialog box that pops up, choose "Add with Subfolders"
6. Navigate to the glpkmex folder you added to your toolbox folder and click "ok"
7. Click "Save" in the "Set Path" diaglog box, then "Close"
8. Test the glpk installation by typing "glpktest1" and then "glpktest2" at the Matlab command prompt. You shouldn't get any errors.

But when i run glpktest1 or glpktest2 then it gives a error stating:

>> glpktest1
LP problem
??? Undefined command/function 'glpkcc'.

Error in ==> glpk at 498
[xopt, fmin, status, extra] = glpkcc(c, a, b, lb, ub, ctype, vartype, sense, param);

Error in ==> glpktest1 at 21
[xmin,fmin,status,extra]=glpk(c,a,b,lb,ub,ctype,vartype,s,param)


Please help!!
